Hitting The Pavement…

Hello my Loves!!!!!!!! How is everyone doing! I feel fabulous! Today is a good day =)

Eats And Workouts…

Tuesday Afternoon I had leftover Veggie Lasagna with Oikos Caramel Yogurt…Why is pasta, always better on the next day? YUMS!

For din din I had a BIG MAC ATTACK! But I decided to make my own “big mac”. I searched for the secret sauce online and came up with this combo; Thousand Island Dressing, Mayo, Sweet Relish, and Splenda. I put the sauce on a Black Bean Burger with Lettuce and Arnold Thin with Sweet Potato Fries

It didn’t taste exactly like the special sauce but it was still good.

Wednesday Morning I was planning to go for a run but it was pouring so instead I popped in my IntenSati dvd but I wasn't really feeling it since all I wanted to do was run so I stopped after 20 minutes.

I studied for most of the afternoon and then decided to give my workout another shot. This time I did Turbo Fire HIIT 20 followed by Namaste Yoga for Distance Runners.

For lunch I decided to give my big mac sauce another try; this time I used MUCH less Mayo, Thousand Island Dressing, Sweet Relish, Minced Onion, and Ketchup…once again I placed it on my Black Bean Burger with 2% Sharp Cheddar, Lettuce, and a Arnold Thin.

This tasted a little more like the sauce but still not exactly the same. I searched again online and found some other recipes. Do you have any???

I studied a little more, and then for din din I made myself a Green Monster with Spinach, Strawberries, Chocolate LMM, FF Milk, and Splenda

This morning I woke up and the sun was shining! I put on my NEW sneakers

And Achilles Tendon Strap

And headed out for my first run in 2 MONTHS! OMG It felt amazing! I decided to just run on the streets instead of heading to the park. I didn’t want to aggravate my foot even more by walking an extra 2 miles just to run on the trail (which is probably muddy from all the rain). I walked/ran a total of 2.23 miles. When I got back home I did Turbo Fire Sculpt and stretched…great way to start the day!

I refueled with a Green Monster made with Oats, Spinach, 1/2 a Banana, FF Milk, P90X Orange Recovery Formula, Coffee, and Splenda

I feel so great! it is amazing what a good run can you do for your soul!

Good for you having a "Big Mac Attack" and making your own at home, with sweet potato fries no less. That's awesome. I don't know of any good recipes for "special sauce" but I bet you could find the ingredients for their sauce on the website.

Glad to hear you are back on the streets and running again! I hope the new contraption works well for you.

I am so proud of you! and even though the mac sauce wasnt spot on, it looks pretty amazing! My friend alexis orders bigmacs without the meat... to be honest, if you lost focus (and im sure you wont) the McDs stuff might upset your belly BIG time... taht was me at BlogHer LOL

Hey Love! I hope this goes through on your comments...crossing fingers! - still reading and lovin' your eats...God I WISH I had your healthy eats and attitude...instead of drinking a healthy smoothie for dinner, I eat an arm and a leg right until bed...yeah, I suck...so please don't tell me :(

Ya'll, I think that I caught the running bug again. This weekend I headed to Forest Park to support my friend who was doing her first 5K...
